Cf.

This article is about the Latin abbreviation. For other uses, see Cf.
"Confer" redirects here. For the software application, see CONFER (software). For academic degree conferral, see Graduation.

The abbreviation cf. (short for either Latin confer or conferatur, both meaning 'compare')[1] is generally used in writing to refer the reader to other material to make a comparison with the topic being discussed. However some sources offer differing or even contradictory usage guides, as covered below. In Italian, the abbreviation "cfr." (confronta, 'confront') is more common than "cf."[2]
